Smithy mate

 

Has all the red stuff just been painted or did you buy coloured hoses? Just wondered, if it is all painted, how well the paint stays on the hoses when they get hot and expand. I notice you've got both radiator hoses and all your charged intake pipes done.

 

Also, are they painted red jubilee clips on the hoses at the rear? And, finally, has anyone painted their plenum intake jobby?

 

Cheers

Oh and another thing Smithy.

 

I notice you've got no fan upper cowling. Does this affect cooling at all?

 

Cheers

Hi Mike, the red hose connectors are red silicone and part of our hard pipe kit, the top rad hose the same and at the back the connectors are the anodised ends, part of one of our fuel line kits too, power steering pot also sprayed with same paint as cam covers, been done around 18months now and have been off 3 times already for differnt reasons, only 1 tiny blemish where they have been caught when removing, paint used was for Rovers metallic red.

Cheers mate.

 

Sorry for being ignorant but when you say "our" hard pipe kit, I presume that's something you sell? If so, what do you get and how much does it cost?

 

Cheers

Hi DaveW, thatcontact cleaner has been usefull, like my nissan spanner that you must have in exchange as I lost it in your toolkit mate

yup no problem painting your covers mate yust call and I'll do them

syko.

Anyone considered painting their engine with real GOLD paint to help cooling (in McLaren F1 style) ?

Mike, never had a single problem with overheating with the fan shroud removed, been well over 2 years now too, where i live there is an awful lot of heavy town traffic, did it for a reason, only i forget now

As for the bits, take a look at www.cybercraft.co. that's me...

im sorry, i don't like to go about our own prices off goods in this section of the forum

that's me...

cheers
